A number of local community organizations are leading an effort to help turn the prom dreams of more than 300 deserving teens into reality through the third annual Belle of the Ball event on Sat., March 27, 2010.

They have 400 dresses but still need 300 more to meet their goal.

They ask that our readers please donate today to help Girls Incorporated of Orange County, Orangewood Children’s Foundation, Orange Coast College, and Women Helping Women (WHW) give these young women the opportunity to shop for their dream dress absolutely free. In addition, the girls will be participating in workshops about healthy body image and stress management.

All sizes are greatly appreciated. Dress sizes 14 and above are especially needed. All donations are tax deductible and can be dropped off at the following locations:
